Concession Stand
A waft of scents fills the air: french fries, funnel cakes, cotton candy.
Sweet delicacies tempt us at every turn.
So much of who we are is the playful spirit within us, yet hunger pangs nudge us back to the body.
This is a time for balance! The occasional indulgence of life’s rich foods can be a real treat,
but the stamina we’ll need in the park requires wholesome sustenance!
Food in its purest form fuels us. You may have to seek out nutritious foods in the gardens around the park.
They are not often the ones offered to us. Be mindful of when and why you eat.
Sugary foods give us a temporary lift but lack lasting power.
Compulsive eating only puts on the pounds, making it harder to fit on the rides.
Healthful eating curbs our cravings and gives us optimal energy
to keep moving and enjoy a more dynamic life. (S. Finelli)
